I've found them each to be decent-to-good at very specific things, individually. None of them are really good enough or versatile enough to be that "workhorse" that you can just slap on anything.

I wouldn't pay full price for any of these, and they take some dialing in. (It's the same reason that some metal guys will run a lead guitar through a wah in the mid position and just leave it stationary.) I'm currently running this on my leads and solos over Dominator rhythms, and things are sounding pretty gnarly (in a good way). Having said that, that same cheap boxiness, when put on leads/solos, actually separates them nicely from the rhythms while still sitting in a high-gain mix very well. Hellbeast: Also pretty close to the Dominator, except that even after extensive dialing in, it's still got a bit of that boxy, old-school "Line 6 metal", solid state practice amp tone.that really isn't good for rhythms.

This would be a great sim for black metal, grindcore, crust, etc., but just isn't clean enough for run of the mill death metal, deathcore, etc. Even with gates, the thing just generates too high of a signal to noise ratio for most of what I'm doing right now.

I think it takes a backseat to the JST Toneforge series sims though.Įmperor: A close second to Dominator for extreme metal loses out because it's one of the noisier high gain amp sims I've encountered. It's pretty on par with, if not better than, most of what's in Revalver for high gain stuff. Takes some dialing in, but I've gotten some nasty rhythm tones for metalcore/death metal stuff. But the VST3 works beautifully, and is currently being used on an EP I'm working on.ĭominator: Easily the best of the bunch that I bought. The VST2 is extremely unstable in CbB, and I can't get the standalone to work at all. (In all fairness, again, most AA stuff is geared specifically towards extreme metal). I'll probably continue using it on occasion for my extreme metal stuff, but not so much for rock or acoustic stuff. NOT a good bass sim if you're looking for pure, clean tones.even for death metal stuff, I've had to dial the drives down quite a bit to get a cleaner top end (although I'm admittedly not a big fan of fuzz/distortion on bass anyway, and really only use it if I need it to stand out in a dense mix). Very nice low end and sub tones, lots of good fuzz/distortion options and tones. So I can't speak too much to any of the included cabs, and the usability of these sims may vary for you if you just stick with those stock cabs.ĭuality Bass Studio: Decent little sim for metal bass. Now that I've had a few days to really, seriously play with them, I figured I'd share some quick thoughts and impressions for anyone else in the future who might also inquire or be curious.ĭisclaimer: I use a variety of my own cab IRs from Ownhammer, who are pretty much the kings of cab IRs for metal. For those who are unaware, he's a Mexico-based guy that makes sims and plugins geared mostly towards extreme metal: Well, I went ahead and picked up several of his sims (I mean, for $5-10 apiece, why the hell not). Let's discuss and please do email us through the website or hit us up on social media if you want help in the future.I posted a while ago wondering if anyone had had any experience with Audio Assault's stuff, as he was having another ridiculous sale (as he does a lot). It goes on sale CHEAP and you get a little of everything in there from clean to hi-gain. If you are looking for something that can do any genre or style with good quality, there's a lot out there but Brainworx Rockrack is a seriously versatile plugin with a bunch of amps in it made by Igor Nembrini, the best in the business. Hit me back and tell me the exact amps you would like to emulate or have the sound from and if you aren't sure, tell me what bands you'd like to sound like and we can start there.

We also have a lot for bass players.įor you man, I can say that I am a fan of every style of guitar and I can help you find the exact tone you are trying to find.
